As many people have requested the exact location of the ferry terminals we have added a page with maps of those terminal locations.
Unfortunately Google Maps does not actually show the location of the Dubai ferry terminals so we have added screenshots of the locations themselves.
the maps we have added are only approximate but should be able to give you an idea of where the ferry terminals are and how easy they are to get to. Once you are on your way you should spot them really easily.
The ferry Marina and Al Ghubaiba ferry terminals are both very close to public transport links so are easy to access from the Metro and the Tram.
Plans are underway for new ferry terminals at Al Jadaf and Dubai Festival City, planned for completion in summer 2015.
These new routes are to expand on the current marine transport system for Dubai and provide not only more routes for tourist trips but also more services for Dubai residents.
This will increase the number of ferry terminals to 5 with the current terminals at Dubai Marina, Al Ghubaiba and the new terminal at Al Mamzar.
On 1 October 2014 the RTA launched a new route for the Dubai Ferry which is a round trip from Al Mamzar Marine Port. As with other trips, this route takes an hour and costs 75 dirhams for Gold Class and 50 Dirhams for Silver Class travel.
The route will start off on only Thursdays and Fridays with one trip per day at 4.30pm. No doubt the RTA will keep an eye on how popular this route is before they think about increasing the frequency.
Here is the promotional material advertising the service from the RTA:
Golf News has reported that a third route for Dubai Ferry will be introduced from October 2012. The passenger numbers for the Dubai Ferry service have been steadily increasing since it’s introduction and the new service is aimed at both tourists and residents.
The new route will run from the cruise terminal at Port Rashid to the station at al Ghubaiba in Bur Dubai.
